Wow, stockx has been my go-to spot lately, and so far haven't been screwed. There was twice, a pair of 6 unc's didn't check out and 11 cg lows had a switched box, but they emailed ahead of time and gave full refunds. That's great they gave you a refund. Only problem is not seeing what your getting before purchasing.

In this particular case I feel StockX should bite the bullet and send you a replacement for the price you originally paid for these. They authorized the deal for X amount and sent you sub par merchandise. This should not be on you IMO. I would talk with a manager or something about this. They apparently pride themselves on their LCing team and they failed miserably in this instance. Sounds to me like they should take the high road here and make you whole on the original deal.
